ACE-inhibition prevents postischemic coronary leukocyte adhesion and leukocyte-dependent reperfusion injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Objective: Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), retained in the microvascular bed, can contribute to postischemic myocardial reperfusion injury. Since a beneficial effect of ACE-inhibition on reperfusion injury has been reported, we investigated the ...

Gender differences in plaque characteristics of nonculprit lesions in patients with coronary artery disease

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background Although numerous reports suggest sex-related differences in atherosclerosis, limited data describing gender-associated differences in plaque morphology and composition are currently available.

The Long Noncoding RNA MALAT1 Induces Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells and Regulatory T Cells via miR155/Dendritic Cell-Specific Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-3 Grabbing Nonintegrin/IL10 Axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
By shaping T cell immunity, tolerogenic dendritic cells (tDCs) play critical roles in the induction of immune tolerance after transplantation. However, the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the function and immune tolerance of dendritic cells (DCs)

Enhanced Na\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3e/H\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3e Exchange During Ischemia and Reperfusion Impairs Mitochondrial Bioenergetics and Myocardial Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange (NHE) during ischemia reduces cardiac injury due to reduced reverse mode Na+/Ca2+ exchange. We hypothesized that activating NHE-1 at buffer pH 8 during ischemia increases mitochondrial oxidation, Ca2+ overload, and reactive ...

Long non-coding RNA AK023617 orchestrates atherosclerosis by regulating the circadian rhythm of immunity-related GTPase family M protein in macrophages

open access: yesNon-coding RNA Research
Acute coronary events show a diurnal rhythm, and atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability, as a histomorphological characteristic of major adverse cardiovascular events, is a key target for intervention. Although oscillating microRNAs reduce plaque stability

Assessing the effect of statins in lowering the risk of stroke and preventing cerebral ischemia in patients with hypercholesterolemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Numerous analyses have explored the role of statins in reducing stroke incidence, reducing cerebral ischemia in hypercholesterolemic patients, and preventing ischemic stroke.

Improved Left Ventricular Aneurysm Repair with Cell- and Cytokine-Seeded Collagen Patches

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2018
Background. Engineered heart tissues (EHTs) present a promising alternative to current materials for surgical ventricular restoration (SVR); however, the clinical application remains limited by inadequate vascularization postimplantation.

The Safety and Efficacy of Intravascular Lithotripsy in the Treatment of Severe Coronary Artery Calcification in 261 Cases: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports
Background Coronary artery calcification is strongly linked to factors such as advanced age, dyslipidemia, and chronic kidney disease. Severe coronary artery calcification significantly elevates the complexity and risk of percutaneous coronary ...

Inhibiting Matrix Metalloproteinase by Cell-Based Gene Transfer Effectively Treats Acute and Chronic Ischemic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2012
After a myocardial infarction (MI), an increase in the cardiac ratio of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) relative to their inhibitors (TIMPs) causes extracellular matrix modulation that leads to ventricular dilatation and congestive heart failure.
